How dare you make laws and policies that make our girls less safe!-Tonya GJ Prince
Every single year, thousands of Black girls vanish from our communities. Their faces barely flicker across a TV screen. Their names rarely trend. Their families are forced to become their own investigators, organizers, and warriors—shouting into a silence that should shame this nation.
Meanwhile, entire systems bend and rearrange themselves for others. Departments are built. Funding streams flow. Policies shift. All because some groups are seen, their pain amplified, their stories validated.
Where is the national alarm when a Black girl goes missing?
Where are the specialized programs, the emergency task forces, the flood of resources that could save her life?
Where is the “inclusion” for the girls most excluded of all?
Black girls are not invisible. They are being ignored.
We demand tailored protections for the Black girls who are trafficked, groomed, preyed upon, and discarded. We demand Boundaried Spaces, Sanctuary Spaces, Witnessing Rooms where their dignity is honored and their safety is non-negotiable.
Because it is not kindness to tell a Black girl to silence the alarms within her spirit.
It is not kindness to instruct her to lower her guard for any male—no matter what he chooses to call himself.
That is not kindness. That is betrayal.
Why must a Black girl’s name become a hashtag—if she’s lucky—before the world finally looks her way?
In a culture obsessed with “inclusion,” Black girls are still shut out of basic humanity.
We refuse to let them disappear in silence.
We see them. We honor them. And we will not stop speaking their names.
Black girls are valuable. Black girls are worthy. Black girls are sacred.
And Black girls deserve fierce protection—right now, not after the headline.
